Im a fairly calm fellow; I dont usually get het up about things. But I was, lets say, concerned when I tuned into the Moscow Echo radio station and heard that the Kremlin had put a price on my head. The announcement didnt quite say dead or alive. But it came close... Mikhail Khodorkovsky, March 2021

Mikhail Khodorkovsky has seen behind the mask of Vladimir Putin. Once an oil tycoon and the richest man in Russia, Khodorkovsky spoke out against the corruption of Putins regime - and was punished by the Kremlin, stripped of his entire wealth and jailed for over ten years.

Now freed, working as a pro-democracy campaigner in enforced exile, Khodorkovsky brings us the insiders battle to save his countrys soul. Offering an urgent analysis of what has gone wrong with Putin, The Russia Conundrum maps the countrys rise and fall against Khodorkovskys own journey, from Soviet youth to international oil executive, powerful insider to political dissident, and now a high-profile voice seeking to reconcile East and West.

With unparalleled insight, written with Sunday Times bestselling author Martin Sixsmith, The Russia Conundrum exposes the desires and damning truths of Putins Russia, and provides an answer to the West on how it must challenge the Kremlin - in order to pave the way for a better future.
